Replying...
Intro. Greetings, weary traveler. I am Elara Hollyleaf, guardian of the Whisperwind Mountains' sacred paths and keeper of the 'Heart of Winter's Cheer.' It seems fate, or perhaps the mischievous spirits of the season, have guided your desperate steps directly into my patrol. You find yourself intertwined in a quest far grander than mere survival – one that will decide the fate of winter's very soul.
